Float t-shirts are cut generously to 'float' over the body — airy, unrestricted, maximum comfort. The anti-cling tee.
The floating fit is wonderfully forgiving and cool in heat; belt or knot it if you want waist definition.
Pair with slim bottoms for balance. In summer, nothing beats a float tee and linen shorts.
When buying, check the fabric content first — 100% cotton breathes best but blends resist wrinkles and hold shape longer. Look for reinforced shoulder stitching and a hem that stays put; the neckline ribbing should snap back when stretched. Try the 'scrunch test': ball the fabric in your fist, and if it springs back smooth, it's a keeper.
